South Beach Diet Snack Bars Chocolate Caramel Nut

Taste test: This box contained just five bars, and the bars were on the small side, at just over and inch wide and 3 inches long — quite noticeably smaller than the individual wrappers holding them, which could have fit bars a full inch longer.

I bit in to find a mix of soft and chewy/mildly gritty. The inside consisted of some sort of soy-based material on the bottom (the gritty part), topped by a layer of caramel (the soft part) and then coated all over with milk chocolate. It was a step below your average candy bar in terms of taste, but not bad, and the feel wasn't overly gritty, so it was better than a lot of energy/protein bars. Pretty good.

Aroma: Decent caramel and chocolate smell. Not really like candy, but typical of this kind of bar.
